The Simpsons have been on the air for over 20 years. They got their start in between skits on the Tracey Ullman Show and have earned a permanent spot in pop culture. Matt Groening and his team of writers seemed to have been in tuned with the world and all that was happening. Their episodes would play on everything from current events to what’s cool and even give a glimpse into what could happen in the future.
